Overviewnote: Follow the steps below to unpackage your sprayer and prepare the system.

1. Pull the suction tube (a) from the suction tube holder. Pull the yellow handle (b) away from the pump and

unhook it. Pull it backwards over the pump to free the clear paint

hose (c) and electrical cable from the suction tube holder. 2. Once the clear paint hose and electrical cable are

removed from the suction tube holder, replace the yellow handle (d) back into the pump as shown, just above the suction tube holder.

3. On the other side of the pump, fold up the black bracket (e) and remove the spray gun from the pump. Completely unwind the paint hose.

Nozzle Selection

note: Your unit includes two spray nozzles. See below to determine the correct nozzle for your spraying project.

• DirectFeediSprayNozzle-usedforbroadsurfacecoating. Designed for spraying thicker materials, such as latex paints and stains. Spraying with this nozzle will leave a slightly coarser finish that is between a roller and fine-finish sprayer.

• ControlFinishNozzle-usedforsmallprojectsandfine finishing. Designed for spraying thinner materials, such as water- and oil-based stains and thinned paints. The Control Finish Nozzle leaves a smooth finish.

If planning to use the Control Finish Nozzle, refer to pages 18-21 for setup and use instructions.

note: These two spray nozzles have different spray pattern / width controls. Make sure to familiarize yourself with the controls on each spray nozzle. See the “Controls” section, page 8-9.

SetupBefore you begin

nEVER point the spray gun at any part of the body.

IMPORTanT: Make sure the power cord is unplugged.

Setup

note: Make sure the system is placed in a level, clean surface. Follow these instructions for both one-gallon and five-gallon containers.

1. Lift up the suction tube holder as far as it will go. 2. Position the material container next to the pump

assembly as shown. The container handle (a) should be vertical and placed in between the two suction tube guides.

Slide the suction tube holder (b) down until it touches the top of the material container. The container is now secured to the pump and the entire unit can be carried by the container handle.

IMPORTanT: The container handle must be placed between the two suction tube guides, or the container will tip when carried due to the added weight of the pump assembly.

3. Place the suction tube back into position in the suction tube guide. Make sure the tube reaches the bottom of the material container.

note: If working on a ladder, use the belt clip. This accessory provides 1) a place to hook the sprayer to free your hands and 2) a place to attach the spray hose to reduce the pull on your arm.

4. Guide the cord (c) behind the tab (d) on the clip (the paint hose does not need to be secured, as it is attached to the cord). The cord should be attached near the turbine plug (e).

5. Attach the belt clip to yourself (it is recommended that it be secured to waistband of your pants).

6. If necessary, hook the spray gun into the belt clip with the attachment (f).

Preparing to Spraynote: Before spraying, you will need to prime the system (deliver material from the container to the spray nozzle via the paint hose). Follow the steps below.

You Will Need: • Waste bucket • Drop cloths to protect floors and furnishings from

overspray

Preparing to Spray 1. Point the spray nozzle into the side of an empty

waste container. Squeeze and hold the trigger for the next steps.

note: Point the sprayer to the side of the waste container to minimize overspray.

2. Turn the ON/OFF switch to ON. Material will begin to flow from the container into

the paint hose. Air will blow from the spray nozzle. 3. Continue to squeeze the trigger until the material is

flowing freely from the spray gun. The system is now primed and you are ready to

spray.

note: If the sprayer has been used before, some cleaning solution may be left in the paint hose from previous cleanings. Squeeze the trigger until all air and cleaning solution is purged from the hose and material is spraying from the nozzle.

note: The fluid pump will cycle ON and OFF while spraying to regulate pressure. This is normal.

Power and Material ControlsSpray performance will depend upon a number of factors: material thickness, air power, spray pattern selected, and material flow. Testing different variations of the control settings will help you achieve the desired results. See descriptions and suggested Power and Material Settings Guide below to help with your project.

X-Boost™ Power Dial The X-Boost™ power dial adjusts the level of air pressure produced by the turbine. The X-Boost™ power dial is factory-set at maximum out of the box.

• A high air power level will result in faster coverage and a smoother finish with thicker materials.

• Lowering the air power will result in larger drops of material being sprayed from the gun, and will create a slightly rougher finish.

+-

Tip: The thicker the material you are spraying, the higher the turbine power you will need. Thick materials will spray on coarse and smooth out as it dries. Tip: For fine-finish work with thinner materials, you may want to decrease the air power. Spraying a thinner material at high air power will result in more overspray. Overspray is sprayed material that does not stick to the spray surface and bounces back.

Material Flow ControlThe material flow control determines the amount of spray material that is sprayed from the spray gun.Set the material flow by turning the knob on the body of the spray nozzle (iSpray) or the knob on the back of the trigger (Control Finish). iSpray Control Finish

• For thicker materials, it is recommended that

you start with the material flow setting (5) and then gradually increase the flow to suit your particular spraying needs.

• For thinner materials, it is recommended that you start with a low material flow setting (1), and then gradually increase the flow to suit your particular spraying needs.

• The higher the flow setting, the quicker you will have to work in order to avoid drips and sags in your spray pattern.

Tip: Spraying with the control set too high will result in a spray pattern that runs and sags (too much material).Tip: Spraying with the control set too low will result in a spray pattern that does not cover (not enough material).Tip: To ensure desired results are achieved with the controls, test your spray pattern on the spray poster or a scrap piece of wood or cardboard.

note: Make sure the width lever is firmly set in either one of these positions. If it is between positions, the spray pattern will be disrupted.

Tips: 1. Start with a fan pattern for painting trim work

(1-5” width) and larger surfaces like doors and walls (>5” width).

2. Adjust Material & Air Flow settings as shown in chart based on coating, fan pattern width, and nozzle.

3. Fine tune the Material and Air Power settings to achieve the best results for your application.

4. Pull trigger slightly to start the turbine before pulling all the way to spray material.

5. Use narrow pattern for detailed work, touch up. 6. Recommended settings for Material and Air

Power may change if the coating is thinned.


Proper Spraying TechniqueSTOP

The room you are spraying must be properly masked in order to prevent overspray from covering woodwork, floors or furnishings. Make sure you have properly masked the room per the instructions on the enclosed “Taping Guide”.

If spraying with an paint sprayer is new or unfamiliar to you, it is advisable to practice on a piece of scrap wood or cardboard before beginning on your intended workpiece and/or test with water.

Keep Container Filled!Periodically check the material container to make sure the suction tube and inlet filter is submerged in the material. If your spray job requires more than one container of material, it is recommended that the new container be poured into the container that is secured to the unit. This will keep the inlet filter submerged and prevent air from entering the system. If you accidentally run out of material, you will need to follow the “Preparing to Spray” instructions on page 7 to re-prime the system.

Spray PosterA spray poster is included with your unit. The spray poster can be adhered to a spraying surface and can be used for practice. Follow the guidelines on the poster.

Surface PreparationAll objects to be sprayed should be thoroughly cleaned before spraying material on them. Areas not to be sprayed may, in certain cases, need to be masked or covered.

Spray Area PreparationThe spray area must be clean and free of dust in order to avoid blowing dust onto your freshly sprayed surface.

How to Spray Properly

STOPIt is important to keep your arm moving whenever the gun is being triggered. If you pause or linger in one spot too long, too much material will be sprayed to the surface.

STOPPartially pulling the trigger will start the turbine, but no material will spray until the trigger is pulled fully. It is recommended that the trigger first be pulled partially in order to start the turbine before a spray pass is made.

• Position the spray gun perpendicular to and six (6) to eight (8) inches from the spray surface, depending upon the spray pattern size desired. With reduced material flow and air power, you

can get closer to the spraying surface. • Spray parallel to the surface with smooth passes

at a consistent speed as illustrated below. Doing this will help avoid irregularities in the finish (i. e. runs and sags).

6 to 8 inches

Correct

Even coat throughout

Keep stroke smooth and at an even speed

• Always apply a thin coat of material on the first pass and allow to dry before applying a second, slightly heavier coat.

• When spraying larger surfaces, overlap each spray pass by at least 50% This will ensure full coverage.

• When spraying, always trigger the spray gun after spray pass has begun and release trigger before stopping the pass. Always keep the gun pointed squarely at the spray surface and overlap passes slightly to obtain the most consistent and professional finish possible.

note: When you quit spraying for any length of time, switch off the pump / unplug the sprayer. When you restart, wipe the nozzle with a damp cloth to remove any dried paint.


Proper Spraying TechniquePattern ExamplesUse the images and guidelines below in order to assist you in achieving the desired spray pattern for your project. These are meant to be general starting points - you may have to slightly modify certain controls on the system in order to get the exact performance you need.

note: It is recommended that the trigger first be pulled partially in order to start the turbine before a spray pass is made.

STOPDuringaproject,periodicallywipethenozzle tip with a cloth to remove any dried paint.

Large Surface ProjectsGenerally, high material flow and air power are needed for spraying large surface areas, such as walls and decks. The iSpray nozzle is ideal for these applications and is designed for broad coverage in either horizontal or vertical spraying.

• The air cap position will determine the movement direction of the spray gun.

Small Surface ProjectsGenerally, low material flow and air power are needed for spraying smaller surface areas, such as corners, lattice, or spindles. For this type of project, reduce power, material flow and switch to a narrow width when using the iSpray nozzle. The Control Finish Nozzle provides an even narrower pattern for smaller surface projects and fine finishing. Moving closer to the spray surface narrows the fan and moving farther away widens it.

• If you feel the material is going on too thin, increase the material flow.

• If you feel the material is going on too thick, decrease the material flow even further or move the spray gun further away from the surface.

note: If after following the guidelines on these two pages you are still not getting the spray performance you need, refer to the ‘Troubleshooting’ section on page 15.

Besides adjusting the controls, other factors that should be considered when spraying: • Distancefromthesprayobject - if you are too

far from the spraying surface, the material will go on too thin, and vice versa.

• Material thickness - if the spray pattern runs and/or is too splotchy, the material may need to be thinned.

note: Only thin the material if absolutely necessary to improve spray performance. Optimal spray performance should be acheived simply by adjusting the various controls on the unit. If the material needs to be thinned, dilute the material in steps of 5% - 10% until the desired spray pattern is acheived.

• Spray gun movement - moving the gun too quickly will cause the spray pattern to be too thin and excess overspray. Moving the gun too slowly will cause the spray pattern to be too coarse or thick.

CleanupPurging the Paint Hose Before you begin

IMPORTanT: Make sure a drop cloth is placed underneath the pump and material container to catch any drips.

note: Follow the cleanup steps in this manual if you used the Direct Feed iSpray nozzle only. If you used the Control Finish nozzle, follow the cleaning instructions on pages 19-20 in this manual.

To Purge the Paint Hose 1. Turn the ON/OFF switch to OFF. Lift the suction tube holder up a few inches. Allow

the suction tube to come up so that it is no longer submerged in the material, but leave it in place within the suction tube holder.

2. Push the tab below the trigger (a), twist and separate the nozzle from the turbine. Wipe the exterior of the nozzle until clean.

Open the velcro strap at the paint hose and separate the power cord from the hose at about a length of 3 feet from the turbine.

Donotsubmergeorallowtheturbinetocomeinto contact with any liquids.

3. Turn the material flow control knob to 12. Pull the trigger backwards and pull out the trigger stop (b).

note: The material flow control knob must be set to 12 in order for the trigger stop to move out.

4. Using the belt clip attachment, hook the nozzle onto the empty suction tube holder (the one that does not currently have the suction tube in it) as shown. The front of the nozzle should be pointing directly into the material container.

5. Turn the ON/OFF switch to ON. Allow the pump to run until all paint is purged from the spray hose.

Turn the pump OFF. Leave the trigger stop in place for the next steps.

Cleanup (continued)Flushing the nozzle Before you begin • If you sprayed using latex materials, you will need a 1- to

5-gallon container filled with warm, soapy water. • If you sprayed oil-based materials, you will need a bucket

filled with approximately 1 quart of mineral spirits.

Special cleanup instructions for use with flammable solvents (must have a flashpoint above 100ºF (38ºC):

• Alwaysflushspraygunoutside. • Areamustbefreeofflammablevapors. • Cleaningareamustbewell-ventilated. • Donotsubmergeturbine!

To Flush the Direct Feed iSpray Nozzle 1. Remove the material container from the pump (you may

have to lift up the suction tube holder to make room). 2. Replace the material container with a bucket of the

appropriate cleaning solution (see “Before you begin”, above). Lower the suction tube holder and submerge the suction tube into the cleaning solution.

note: The spray nozzle should now be pointed directly into the container of cleaning solution.

Turn the pump ON and allow cleaning solution to circulate for approximately 5 minutes.

3. After 5 minutes, while pump is running, remove suction tube from the cleaning solution and allow the solution to purge from the nozzle and paint hose.

Turn the pump OFF. 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 twice using new cleaning solution

each time. At the end of the third flushing, remove the suction tube from the holder, and raise it up so it is vertical. This will allow all fluids to be purged.

Keep the pump running for the next step.

note: The suction tube may no longer be clear due to residual spray material. This is normal and will not affect future performance of the unit.

5. Empty the paint hose of cleaning solution: a. Starting as close to the pump as you can, lift the paint

hose above the level of the nozzle. b. “Walk” the hose through your elevated hands until

you reach the nozzle. This allows gravity to fully drain the hose of all liquids.

c. Shut the pump OFF. 6. Make sure to push the trigger stop back into the trigger

to release the trigger.
